PG - 1215-9 AB - Two competitive percepts are produced from a bistable stroboscopic motion display. In this display two frames, each containing three horizontally arrayed elements are presented alternately for several cycles. At short interstimulus intervals (ISIs) element or end-to-end motion responses are obtained when the two inner, spatially overlapping elements are seen as stationary and the third element moves back and forth from one end to the other end. Group motion responses are obtained at longer ISIs when the three elements are seen to move back and forth as a group. The dominance of these two percepts across ISIs was controlled by the manipulation of (1) element size, (2) frame duration, and (3) viewing conditions. Under both binocular and dichoptic viewing, element motion responses increase as element size and frame duration decrease. By maximizing pattern persistence substantial element motion responses were obtained dichoptically as well as binocularly. Instead of supporting the existence of two separate, low-level and high-level, motion systems, our data suggest that there is a single, high-level mechanism for motion whose output can be modulated by pattern persistence.
